The public have got so\nused to these explosions, etc., that\nthey have got hardened into believing\nthat they cannot be avoided anil read\nthe accounts of the disaster almost\ni without a shudder.\nThe average man who pays his $8\nia ton for coal and then gels told of\n', the miserable pittance the miner re-\n| ceives for the same wonders where\n| the difference goes. But when he\n! learns that coupled with that miser-\nj able sum is the prospect of becoming maimed or killed in its production, he is apt to think there is some-\n| thing wrong.\nThe average city worker being out\n! of  touch  with  the  coal  miner,  some\n[never even  seeing a mine, the ques-\n' tion   is   never   brought   bottle   suffic-\niently strong to get his assistance in\nlegislation fe.r the betterment of conditions.\nWhat legislation is on  the statute\n: books has been put there entirely by\nI the miners themselves, through their\nunions and  their representatives.\nEven in the Old Country where\ni the miners have bad many prolonged\nj struggles in the attempt to better\ntheir conditions, the public have generally stood aloof and left the ques-\nI tion severely alone as a subject tn be\nIslnved by the miners themselves.\nThus only can wc understand the\n1 apathy of the people in. Vancouver\ni and on thc lower mainland with rc-\nI garil to the miners' strike on Vancou-\nj ver Island.\nThe subsidized press of ihe Province retail the alleged \"horrors\" that\nI have taken place in the attempt of\n! the miners to prevent men from losing their manhood. There being no\norgans of sufficient strength outside\nthe labor press to give the true facts\nof the case, the unthinking public are\neasily blinded.\nApathetic as thc Old Country people are it is safe to say that the court\nproceedings just finished would not bc\nallowed to pass without a strong protest.\nIt is all very well to talk oi the liberty of the subject, but when that liberty is a menace lee the majority we\ncannot understand how it should be\nlooked on as a crime to protect the\nmajority's  interests\nWhen a dispute arises in the medical nr the legal profession, their\n\"unions,\" which arc perhaps the\nstrongest in the world, take steps to\neffectually \"kill off\" the obnoxious\nintruder, and it is generally sanctioned by the courts. But when an ordinary coal miner, untrained and unlearned in legalities anel ..ther formalities, uses a little persuasion in\nhis own way, lie is held Up as being\na criminal and one who is eenly safe\ninside prison bars.\nMeanwh.ie the Minister of Mines\n(We do not know whether to take\nthis title as a jeike or not) is spouting\nimperialism and hob-nobbing with\nthe powers that be in bis attempt to\ndivert attention freun the serious situation over on the Island.\nIt is time the people in Vancouver\nwere awakened to the true situation.\nThat their sympathy is with the miners is only too well known, but the\napathy tbat is shown in getting after\nthose responsible feir these conditions\nis lamentable. A few straight, pointed questions to the various cabinet\nministers and the ''solid five\" might\ndo a whole lot of good. Because a\nman is a Conservative is no reason\nfor him losing his sense of humanity\nand it might do the government a\nlot of good to hear some opinion expressed from its supporters on this\nmomentous question.\nTom Mann, speaking in Vancouver\na fortnight ago made a very pert remark   on   industrial   conditions   here.\nIt are often told of the strenuous\nconditions and long hours of labor in\nthe Old Land and his statement came\nI., s.eme as an eye-eipener. He said\nthat \"an\/ man coming out to Canada, having enjoyed the benefit of the\nSaturday afternoon half-holiday at\nhome, should be soundly kicked if\nhe reverts to the other way.\" While\nnot agreeing with the kicking method,\nstill it is evident tbat a deal of education and \"agitation\" is necessary\namong the workers in these parts to\nawaken them to the benefits to be derived from the half-day. We think\nit is safe to say that not more than\n5 per cent, of the workers in the < >ld\nLand forego the Saturday afternoon.\nThe Home Rule question is again\nIn the front in British peelities. It has\noften appeared as on the eve of settlement but never yel\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdeven . in the\ndays of Gladstone\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdlias the subject\nbeen so much in the limelight.\nVarious causes can be assigned Fe r\nthe taciics of Cars n. a privy councillor by the way, and the government's statement that they are going to pass the bill this time and make\nit law. Apart irom this there is a\nnew light on the horizon which is\nhoi welcomed by cither of the two\nparties, who sec a danger to themselves. Who is to get the Irish \\\"U\nhas been the titbit both the orthodox\nparties have been fighting for ami\nnow that a new party has sprung up\nwhich threatens to swamp them they\nare united in attempting to suppress\nit. It is the best sign that has appeared in this question yet and a\nunited Irish-Labor vote would have\nmore far-reaching consequences than\nHome Rule or any mh.er kin. 1 of\nrule. A brief pen picture of Jim Larkin.   the   leader   in   the   labor   move\nment  in   Ireland  is  taken  from    the\n\"Daily Citizen\" of London, England:\n\"Big in inches, but bigger in heart,\nIrish of the Irish, and a devout Catholic, \"Jim\" Larkin, who has been arrested again in Dublin, is a born\nleader of men. Agitator and firebrand he is called, and his speeches\nset down in cold print, are full no\ndoubt of wild and whirling phrases\njudged, that is tei say, by conventional standards of the circumspect.\nEven in the trade union movement\nLarkin has been regarded as often\nimpulsively reckless. His Celtic temperament chafes under the necessity\nof restrain, especially when he is ?ut-\nting what is\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand twenty years hence\nwill be so regarded\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdan irresistible\ncase. But it would be a mistake to\njudge James Larkin simply as a man\nof words. If his language is intense,\nit reflects but thc spirit of the man\nof act ie ,n, prepared tei spend and be\nspent in the cause of his fellows. With\ntrue Irish love of lighting, Larkin is\nnever at the rear when the enemy is\nin light. But he is capable of harder\nwork even than that of rousing an\naudience tn enthusiasm by a vivid recital of iheir wrongs, In half a dozen\nyears he has given casual workers of\nDublin, and much of the Green Isle\nbesides,  an   idea   which  has     touched\ns^ithem even as the visi'jn of Home\nRule never has, and which will persist and demand translation int'< action after Home Rule has become a\nseiber and possibly disappointing reality. Organized under the banner\neif the Irish Transport Workers'\nUnion sre 20,000 men of the type most\ndifficult to bring under any sense of\ndiscipline or combined action. It is\nthe personal magnetism of the leader\nthat has accomplished the miracle,\nand the question remains : \"Can the\nwork endure?\" In great conferences\nof trade unionists Larkin is apt to\nbe a \"difficult\" delegate. The spirit\nof revolt is in his blood, but, like\nevery real leader, he has in him also\nmore than a touch of the autocrat,\nbenevolent, of course, but impatient\nof other opinions. It would seem to\nbe Larkin's mission tei set men's\nminds aflame, to give them an ideal\nand  an  inspiration.\"\nMontreal Trades and Labor Council has made requests to the provincial and civic authorities for the abolition of all employment bureaus except those under the control of the\ncity and the  province.\nAfter a strenuous contest extending over eight months, the strike of\nthe photo engravers of Toronto has\nbeen finally settled on a basis satisfactory to the union. During the contest scores of mechanics were brought\nfrom Great Britain by the employers\nto act  as  strikebreakers.    Several  of\nthese were ilepejrted by the government, alter determined protest by the\nlocal union, backed by all organized\nlabor. A very large per cent, of these\nimportations, however, upon being informed of the real situation deserted\ntheir employers and became members\noi the union.

During his trip he will have a\nchance to compare thc present Province eef Saskatchewan with  the Sask\natchewan District he knew so well\nmore than twenty years ago. For\nMr McArthur is an eeld-timer from\nSaskatchewan. He was the organizer of a School District at Welwyn.\nSask., many, many years ago. He\nwas the first secretary of the School\nBoard at that point. He was one of\nthe first Councillors there. He was\nthe first postmaster.\nAmong the other trustees from\nSouth Vancouver who attended lhe\nConvention at Victoria were Chairman Whelpton and Trustee William\nMorris. In the many discussions\narising over educational matters, the\nSouth Vancouver delegation gave a\ngoeid account of themselves and upheld to thc fullest extent the dignity\nof South Vancouver, which is recognized as  the  best   equipped;  systema\ntized and  managed  school  district\nthe  Province of British Columbia.\nLocked in Church\nSunday evening lhe worshippers a-\nSt.   Columlia     Presbyterian     Churcl\ncomer   45th   Avenue   and   Gladston.\nRoad,  had  the  unique  experience   .\nbeing   locked   in   the   church.

Agreed to.\nThe  premier  at   the   outset  asked\nthe privilege of the house to make a\nstatement of the government's\nicy.    Hc asked if it was the wish\nthe  house   that   they   revert  back   to\nthe King's Speech for further discussion or pass on and discuss the Fran-1\nchise Act which was now printed and j\nin the hands of the members.\nMr. Hill. Revelstoke, was instantly\non his feet making an attack on the\ngovernment for what he considered\nwas their lack of backbone. They\nhad brought in the \"Sptech\" and had\nhad it passed in the house, and now\nthey were asking the house to rccem-\nsider it. It seemed to him they were\nplaying a deep game and were wanting to postpone the first reading of\nlhe Franchise Act. which he said had\nbeen pilfered from the cross-benches\nin order to get some of the ladies up\nthere to strengthen their position.\nSecretary of State Lamond in replying stated that the governmenl\nhad no ulterior motive in asking the\nhouse to take up the speech again.\nThey wcre quite prepared to go along\nwith the next measure but the government had thought that perhaps\nsome of the new members would have\nliked to discuss it. (Loud cheers\nfrom   the   government  benches.)\nMr. Jacques, Victoria, said he would\nsupport the government. Having\nbeen in office last session he had been\nmade quite aware of the difficulties\nattendant on a government, and especially   a   Liberal   government.\nMr. Hilton, Vancouver (21, while\nnot in favor of the \"speech,\" said it\nwas desirable it be passed in order\nto get it out of the  road.\nPremier Pleming asked that the\nquestion be now put. The division\nhell having been rung several members of the Opposition arrived just\nin time to save the government from\ndefeat. The Conservatives and Liberals voted solidly together and thc\ncross-benches were defeated by two\nvotes.\nBefore thc vote was taken Mr. Rankin (Comox) asked the speaker's permission to make his position clear\nin thc eyes of his constituents. He\nhad said hc would vote for the government to keep them in office but\nafter seeing the tactics displayed by\nthe opposition, he would vote with\nthe cross-benches. (Loud cheers from\nCross-benches.)\nThe Premier then asked leave of\nthe house to introduce Measure No.\n1 of the King's Speech, viz., An Act\nto extend the Franchise.\nThe Clerk of the House then read\nthe bill which i.s as  follows :\nresidence in the Province shall be an\nessential qualification to exercise this\nFranchise.\nClause 3.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdAll adults of and beyond\nthe full age of 21 years of foreign or\nmill-British birth may exercise this\nfranchise on being accepted as a naturalized British subject by the regularly  appointed  government  officers.\nClause 4.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdAll persons of non-\nBritish birth domiciled in Canada for\n3 years may obtain naturalization papers hy complying with the statutory\nrequirements.\nClause 5.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe adoption of this\nAct shall, and does grant, to all qualified persons all the rights and privileges now enjoyed by those to whom\nthe Franchise is at present extended.\nDEAN OF COUNCIL ,\ufffd\ufffdP\ufffd\ufffdnu t0 his own,\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdc\ufffd\ufffd11 f\",r thc ,names\nGETS \"IN BAD\" 0I l'lc tw\" councillors who had complained about an alleged incorrect report.\nThus was Councillor Thomas\ncaught in his own net, and his inconsistency, one might almost say insincerity,   exposed.\nAN\nACT    TO    EXTEND\nFRANCHISE\nGOD SAVE THE KING\t\nThe lirst reading of the bill was\npassed, the cross-benches declining\nto vote.\nThe premier then moved that the\nhouse go into Committee of thc\nWhole to discuss the various clauses.\nAgreed  to.\nThe house  having gone into committee,   Premier   Pleming  said    they\nwere  only  fulfilling  their  pledge    to\nthe country in making this, the first\nmeasure   on   their   programme.     Hc\nfelt sure the bill would have the sup-\n*e ,a   port of all parties and would go down\n|P\ufffd\ufffd j! in  history  as  the  greatest  piece  of\n1  \"    legislation   ever   introduced.   (Uproar\non the cross-.benches.)\nMr. Hill stated that he would introduce amendments to the measure\nlater on, but wished to point out in\nthe meantime that the very first\nclause of the bill was sufficient to\ncondemn it. The words \"not otherwise disqualified\" practically precluded the women ever getting the vote.\nMr. Kavanagh (Ladysmith) made\na telling speech against the government. He spoke as a Socialist member and said he wished to draw the\nmask away (torn thc Liberal government. Personally, he rather liked the\nConservatives. They were al least\nhonest in opposing them hut the Liberals ran under so many different\nnames that they were not to bc trusted. (Loud cheers from the cross-\nbenches.)\nSecretary of State Lainond spoke\nstrongly in faver of the bill and said\nit was from a strong point of duty\nthc bill had been introduced. He\nshowed at some length the disabilities the women had worked under\nin the past, and even put in a plea for\nthe \"militants,\" instancing how the\nmale population had adopted similar\ntactics before the passing of the Reform Bill.\nMr. Rankin. Comox. asked when it\nwas that the Liberals had got so enthusiastic on Women Suffrage. It\nseemed like irony in the Secretary of\nState suggesting they get one or two\nprominent women up to \"educate\"\nthem on the question. The cross-\nbenches had been \"educated\" now\nquite a long time.\nMr. Hilton spoke adversely on the\nmeasure.\nMr. Rankin moved the debate stand\nadjourned.    Agreed to.\nThe committee rose and reported\nprogress.\nThe house then went into committee on Ways and Means and various\nbills were  ordered to be paid.\nPremier Pleming stated he intended getting one or two of the more\nprominent women in the movement\nup next Tuesday to address the\nhouse.\nMr. Rankin meeved that three-quarters of an hour be given them in\nwhich to state their case. Agreed\nto.\nThe house then adjourned to meet\nTuesdav first, Municipal Hall, at 7.45\nTHE'p.m.\nInconsistency  Alleged  upon  part  of\nTalkative   Mr.  Thomas\nAfter advocating in season and out i\neef season that the will of the people!\nshould  rule  in  all  municipal affairs; j\nafter threat \"iling to resign, not once,'\nbut  scores  of times  during  the  past:\ntwo   years\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdbut   never   carrying   out i\nhis  threats\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\"to give the people who :\nelected  me,\" as  lie puts it, a chance j\nto   settle   disputes   between     himself i\nand   his   colleagues   on   the     council.\nCouncillor Thomas  found  himself  in i\na quandary on Tuesdav last when he i\nhad   an   opportunity   to  vote  for   the\nsecond reading of a  Referendum by- j\nlay   to  ascertain   whether  thc  people\nwhom he says should rule desire the\nward system to continue or not.\nApparently Councillor 'i homas does\nnot desire the people to decide this\nmost important question. On Tuesday last he spoke strongly against\nthe proposal to submit the matter to\na vote of the people. He said he did\nnot believe in the abolition of the\nward system and he did not approve\nof the Referendum bylaw because,\nhe said, there was no demand from\nthe ratepayers for the abolition of the\nward system.\nReminded by Councillor Dickinson   that   \"to   abolish   the   ward   sys-\nTHOMAS DOOKS MAY\nRUN AGAINST\nCOUNCILLOR THOMAS\nCouncillor Thomas will have a\nlight this election, if signs go for any-\nlliing, and his opponent will likely\nlie Mr. Thomas Dook6, 36 Forty-\neighth Avenue West.

Mr. Wilbers, the member\nfor Alberni, also made a capital speech\nin which he said that Canada had a\nright to demand that those who came\nto live in such an ambitious dominion should have intellectual aspirations as well as physical fitness and\nmoral character It was amusing to\nhear Mr. Morris and a few others\nprotest against the possibility of any\nimmigration official being \"s \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd eel lo\nundue influence\" or guilt\" of \"graft.\"\nEverybody knows that all Canadian\nofficials are angels of purity, the only\nthing that puzzles us is, how do they\nconceal their wings?

In view of the fact that\nMr. F. L. Carter-Cotton, M.P.P.. for Richmond, of\nwhich electoral district South Vancouver forms the\nmajor part, is president of the Vancouver Board of\nTrade, it would seem strange if the South Vancouver\nBoard of Trade is not on the most frienc\"y terms\nwith the Vancouver Board of Trade.\nLaying all jokes aside, however, the impression\nseems to have got abroad that the Vancouver Board\nof Trade is a most select and exclusive body operated\nfor the particular benefit of a certain class of reliable,\nold-fashioned Vancouver business men. Now, this\nis not the fact. Secretary Blair told the business men\nof South Vancouver, Monday night, that the Vancouver Board of Trade has a total membership of 650\nmen. It is an institution for the furtherance of the\ncommercial interests of Vancouver, and in this work,\nthe Vancouver Board of Trade asks for the co-operation and support of all the Boards of Trade on the\nPeninsula.\nSecretary Blair stated that it had been his pleasure\nsome few days ago to refer a certain manufacturer\nlooking for a factory site lo South Vancouver. In\nforty-eight hours after landing here that gentleman\nhad completed negotiations for the necessary river\nfrontage upon which he will build his factory.\n\"We want reciprocity between the municipalities\nand the city,\" stated the Vancouver secretary. \"What\nis your interests, ours are also. We recognize in Vancouver that the only remaining cheap industrial sites\non this peninsula are right down here on the North\nArm of the Fraser River. It has been my pleasure to\nrefer several concerns to South Vancouver. Daily,\nwe are in receipt of many letters from all over the\nland from manufacturers looking for locations on this\ncoast. It will be possible for us to send a great many\nindustries to your municipality. The new United\nStates tariff measures are driving many factories out\nof business below the line. A cotton concern, from\nCalifornia, employing 400 hands, among others, wishes to locate near Vancouver. We of the Vancouver\nBoard of Trade wish to see South Vancouver and\nevery municipality round about prosper. For your\nprosperity is our prosperity, and we heartily invite\nyou to attend our meetings and exchange ideas wilh\nus.\"\nIn initiating this scheme, the South Vancouver\nBoard of Trade displayed good judgment, and if it is\ncarried out on the proper lines a great good will undoubtedly result to the people of British Columbia.\nSince the idea of forming a public utilities board was\nfirst outlined, conditions have arisen in South Vancouver, Vancouver and throughout the Lower Mainland which demand the bringing into existence of\nsome sort of machinery for the protection of the owners of great public utilities and the people who must\npay the corporations' dividends.\nIt might be well if all the municipalities of British\nColumbia were to club together in this matter for the\npurpose of appointing a permanent public utilities\nboard. Probably the best plan would be to have all\nthe dealings between municipalities and the street railway and other public utility concerns whose interests\nare not tied Up in one particular district pass through\nthe hands of such a commission. The members of\nsuch a board would specialize on the subject of public\nutilities, and the powers of all the British Columbia\nmunicipalities as regards public utilities operating\nwithin their boundaries might to a reasonable extent\nbe concentrated in this board. The people might lay\ntheir grievances before the commissioners who would\nbe in a position to give speedy action upon the same.\nIt would cut out a lot of wasted time and money.. Its\nvalue to the Province would be proportionate to the\nvalue of the Federal Railway Commission to the Dominion of Canada.\nThe South Vancouver Board of Trade very wisely\nattaches much importance to the question of the proper handling of \"public utilities.\" Messrs. Whelpton.\nBruce and Allan are on the committee of the Board\ndealing with this matter\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdGentlemen of acumen and\ncommon sense, who will take a broad, sensible view\nof the matter. The question is complex and difficult\nand the average taxpayer needs enlightening as to\nwhat the cities have done with their \"public utilities.\"\nIt will be found that late in the day they have started\nto remedy evils South Vancouver has the opportunity\nof preventing from the start.\n..!\nMAIN STREET'S PROGRESS\nWHEN an industry is brought lo South Vancouver, an endless chain of good is thc result, and\nthc efforts of the Main Street Improvement Association and its very active member, Mr. R. M. Robson,\nare worthy of special mention at this particular time,\nToday, workmen are engaged at the foot of Main\nStreet, building a factory for a large tannery concern,\nand soon a start will be made in the same locality upon\nthe construction of a building to house a large rubber\nindustry. This means that the nucleus of a factory-\ncentre has been started on the North Arm of the\nFraser at the foot of Main Street.\nThrough the efforts of the business men of Main\nStreet, the postal service in that particular quarter of\nthe municipality is to be improved. In Vancouver, at the\ncorner of Eighteenth Avenue, a great new post office\nbuilding is being erected. At the corner of Main and\nWilson Road another new Government building is to\nbe located. Then, near the foot of the street, there is\nGrimmett Post Office. Mail delivery twice daily is\ngiven throughout the length of the street practically.\nWhat Main Street is doing, Fraser Street might\nalso, not only imitate, but improve upon. And so\nmight others of the more important thoroughfares\nthroughout this section of Greater Vancouver related\nto the North Arm of the Fraser River.\nSOUTH  VANCOUVER AND   THE  SCHOOLS\nCONVENTION\nAT the School Trustees' Convention at Victoria\nSouth Vancouver played no inconsiderable\npart. Mr. Whelpton, chairman of the South Vancouver Board attended with Trustee Morris and Trustee\nMcArthur. The last named gentleman has devoted\nmany years to educational and social work and this\nfact was recognized by electing him first vice-president.\nIf Mr. J. C. McArthur regains his old-time strength\nand vigor\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand we sincerely hope he may do so\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\nwhen the convention next assembles at Nelson, the\ngenial official from South Vancouver will be found\nto well sustain the role for which he has been cast.\nTo South Vancouver the credit is largely due for\nthe passing of the following resolution :\n\"In view of the vast agricultural possibilities afforded in this Province, and also having in mind the great\nand continuous source of wealth which the development of such possibilities offer, this Convention is resolved that, while not disparaging the encouragement\ngiven to immigration, every effort should be made to\ninduce the children of our schools to realize the splendid opportunities contained in the scientific cultivation\nof the soil. To further this end and to elevate agricultural pursuits in the minds of the people, we, the\nSchool Trustees, in Convention, urge the Government\nto include in the school curriculum elementary instruc\ntion on the lines of scientific farming.\"\nIt will be remembered that not only did the South\nVancouver School Trustees bring this matter forward and discuss it with zeal and ability, but Mr.\nMorris took this resolution to the Collingwood llusi-\nness Men's Association\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdthat body endorsed it and\nrecommended it to thc School Convention, thus gaining for South Vancouver credit for being well abreast\nof modern methods of practical education. Tlie Victoria journals show ample evidence that \"the island\"\nwelcomes and respects the intellectual lights of South\nVancouver.\nINSIST UPON Vancouver-made goods. In doing\nthis you enable the manufacturer to increase his output and compel him to employ more help.

Arthur Philipson had sought in\nvain for a sight of Anne of Gierstein.\nIn reply to his guarded inquiries,\nArnold had said that she had been\nsent to a place where she would remain in safety until the times were\nless troublous.\nBut now, as the hawking party\ncame up with the Phillpsons, Arthur\ncould have sworn that in the richly\ndressed young lady, with her hawk\nupon her gauntleted wrist, attended\nby her falconer and a half-dozen\nmounted men-at-arms (which the\nstate of thc country rendered necessary as a guard), he recognized Anne\nof Gierstein.\nIndifferent Sport\nA black vizard concealed her features, as was thc custom in those days\nwhen young ladies of quality rode\nabroad. But the form and air were\nthat of the maiden of the mountains.\nYet both she and her attendants\nwere dressed in the German manner.\nArthur thought of the strange story\nof Anne's ancestry and of his experience that night when he kept\nguard on the drawbridge at ruined\nGraffslust\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand   was   bewildered.\nwas   the   voice   eel\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd ti Grierstein.\n\"Arthur,\"   saiel   Philips,,11     a\nlater.   \"I   am   convinced   that   y\nhowling,   hypocritical     vagrant\nsome  design upon  us,  and  have  well\nnight determined to consult my opinion  and  not  his as  to our  places  of\nrepose and the direction \"f our journey.\"\nEscaping Many Plots\nWithout explaining whom the\nyuung lady had recently parted company seemed in his eyts to resemble.\nArthur told his father that she had\nwhispered to him that ihey ought to\ntake the road lo Strasburg by the\neastern side of the river, and for that\npurpose cross over at a place called\njKirchoff.\nAfter considering the matter, the\nelder Philipson decided that Arthur\nshould take the road advised by the\nunknown maiden while he himself\nwould continue on by the right bank\nof the river. Thus one of them\nwould be sure to arrive at the court\nof Charles and present to him the\nbusiness upon which ihey journeyed\nto the Duke's capital.\nAfter escaping many plots laid\nagainst him by secret foes, the elder\nPhilipson at length arrived at Strasburg Several times upon the journey-he encountered in the most unexpected places the Black Priest of | kill\nSt. Paul's, and everywhere this\nstrange man seemed to exercise the\npower and inspire the same terror\nas at  Brisach.\nAnd it was the Black Priest, apparently, who watched over Philipson\nand rescued him from the many\nperils he encountered on the journey.\nWelcomed with Blushes\nIn the meantime Arthur, pursuing\nhis journey upon the left bank of the\nriver, came one day toward evening\nIo a great castle situated near tlie village, and in front of the castle saw,\nto Ilis amazement, Annette, the attendant of Anne of Gierstein.\nHis heart throbbed as he asked the\ngirl if Anne was in the neighborhood.\nAnnette answered that \"The noble\nand high-born lady, Anne. Countess\nof Arnheim,\" was in residence at thej thus anel his\ncastle; conducted htm thither and. inlceeds of the\nthe countess, he recognized Anne\nGierstein.\nAnne welcomed Arthur with diffidence and blushes, but finally assumed a more formal and -lately manner.\nThe village was occupied by a band\nof mercenary soldiers in the pay oi\nthe empire, and it would not be safe\nfor Arthur to venture among them,\nas they were mutinous, not having\nof late received their pay.\nAnne explained many things. Ii\nhad, indeed, been she whom Arthur\nhad seen go out of Graffslusl thai\nnighl when he kepi watch at tlie draw-\ndridge.\nSeme Mysteries Explained\nA  messenger from lur  father  had \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ngot word to her that she should nn et i\nhim in tlie woods that night, and she I\nhad   obeyed   the   paternal   injunction.!\nIn   that  interview  it  had  been  arranged   that   Count   Albeit   should  re- \\\neene his daughter the next day. when\nihe envoys Bel out  for Brisach     She\nhad   been   sent   under   escort   ley   the\nCount to the Castle of Arnheim, ami\nwhile  she  was on   her  way  there  had\nencountered   Arthur   and   Iiis   lather.\nThis   guide,   she   had   learned   freem\nilie conversation of her attendants,\nhad been sun by persons who had an\ninteresi in preventing llie arrival ft\nllie Philips.iis at the Court of Charles\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdto procure iheir imprisonment eer\ndeath.\nHer father was now at Strasburg\nThe wild romances connected \"iih\nAnne's ancestry she explained as fiction  based  upon  ignorance.\nParting   Forever\nWhen Arthur spoke eif Rudolph\nDonnerhugel Anne told him frankly\ntbat while Rudolph had been a suitor\nfor hcr hand, neither shc nor her uncle had given him any encouragement\nand she could never be his wife.\nWhile they talked the steward came\nin excitedly to say that the soldiers\nhad broken out into open revolt and\nwould attack the castle early the nexl\nmorning.\nTo defend the huge edifice with so\nsmall a number of retainers as could\nbe mustered by Anne was impossible.\n,1  the\nPeace  Impossible\nseeming merchant found ready\nto the great Duke, for Philip-\nMen was, in fact, the Earl of Oxford\nof the proud race of the de Veres and\nArthur his heir lee that great title.\nThe Earl had found defeat, poverty\nand exile in the service of the House\n..I Lancaster and had r.eew been sent\nby the exiled and dethroned Queen,\n.Margaret of Anjou, to endeavor tfl induce the Duke to furnish men and\nmeans in aid of a Lancastrian descent\nupon England.\nThe diamond necklace was sent by\nMargaret as a token tei Charles and\nwa' t.i be as bis pledge for the men\nand   money  he  should   furnish.\nBin Charles declared that he would\ndo nothing until lie had chastised the\n(Swiss. He declared he would hang\nthe Swiss delegates when they should\narrive at Dijon, and it was only the\ninfluence of the Earl of Oxfeerd that\nprevented him from carrying \ufffd\ufffdUt his\nthreat.\nFinding peace impossible the envoys made a formal declaration of\nwar and returned to their mountains,\nihen began that war against the Cantons in which the great Duke was\n:1 and thc power of Burgundy\nbroken forever. Arthur and his father made the campaign with the Duke.\nWith the  Passing  Years\nAmid llie forces of the y mug claimant of Tie Dukedom tti Lorraine, who\njoined witli the Swiss, re.de a warrior\nwh.. had vowed the death eef Charles,\nand whe.se death the Duke had sworn.\nHe was Albert von Grierstein, once\nthe Black Priest of St. Paul's and\nhea'd fi ihe Secret Tribunal, so bated\nby the Duke. He was now released\nfrom his priestly vows and took the\nfield  in  armeer.\nBoth he and Charles were killed in\nthe last battle between the Swiss and\nthe   Burgundians.\nMargaret e.f Anj.ui died and bequeathed thc diamond necklace to Ar-\nfathcr.

Before\nlong the whole house will bc furnished.\nNext, the garden is to be considered and a look out kept for fences and\ntries and (lowers of every description.\nThe floral catalogues have heaps of\nthem. Don't forget the garage and\nthe automobile either, and there\nmight be sume chickens, cows and\npigs, if the purple lady's brotlier-in-\nlaw is a gentleman  fanner.\nBut what we can invent fur the\nchild is nothing to lhe plays his own\nfertile little brain will produce after\nyuu have given liim one lesson in\nthis  simple art  of toymaking.  A box\nof crayons to color the pictures is\nan  added  pleasure.\nThe Paper Kingdom charges nothing for thc happiness to be found\nwithin its gates, and the little tenement child may enter with the small\nlady who has at her service an inexhaustible parental purse.\ntit    it    it\nButter and Cream as Medicine\nOne of the favorite remedies uf\nphysicians is cod-liver oil, and why\nis it une of the mysteries eef the world\nuf medicine, when all there is about\nit is an oil or fatty substance is wanted that is easily digested and quite\nan easily assimilated, lish oil being\nappropriated with a small outlay nl\ndigestive power. Why cud-liver oil,\na product of the decomposition uf\nlish refuse, should ever have been\nchanced upon, when butter and cream\narc nature's supply, and at once the\nmost readily obtainable, is unexplain-\nablc. While any one can take cream\nur butter, the consuming of fish oil\nrequires the fortitude of a saint and\nthc heroism of a martyr; and as we\nknow, lhe oil docs not agree with\nmany, and is hard of digestion in\nothers. Now, it has been demonstrated that fresh, unsalted butter, is rather mure digestible than oil, and is\npleasant to take ou thinly-cut slices\nof bread and as high as 4 ounces a\nday of this butter can be eaten with\nimpunity by even delicate persons,\nand cream can be taken to the full\ndesire  uf  the  palicnl.     Where  1 ne  is\nrecovering frum prostrating sickness\nand the body needs nourishment, thii\nfresh butter, it is now asserted, has\nno equal in building up Ihe wasted\ntissues of the body, and as a stimulant, very hot, fresh milk is without\na rival, outside of the use of alcohol,\nwhich last is better left allelic when\npossible, Growing children may be\ngreatly benefitted by indulging in\ngenerous amounts uf butter, though\nit may seem expensive, hut it may\npi.e\\c the' cheapest in the end. Either\nuf these remedies can be taken without a dociur's prescription, and is outside of the \"kill ur cure\" warranl.\n*    *    *\nReal    Happiness    Found   in    Doing\nOthers Good\nThe person who has the flight of faculty of making people satisfied with\nthemselves and what they possess is\nthc greatest distributor of happiness.\nSome people possess that faculty unconsciously, they have such a keen\nappreciation of everything in this\nworld that tliey see only the best.\nIt may be just a little newsboy\none meets but such a remark as, \"Little man, you will be a great business\nman some day,\" will send that \"little\nman'' away with just enough, satisfaction in his heart to make him ambitious and  happy.\nAnd to sonic young girl who is absolutely unconscious nf herself, the\nremark that \"if she keeps herself always as pure and natural as she is today she will grow lovelier year by\nyear,\" will fill her with the appreciation of thc value of the naturalness\nand loveliness which she is told that\nshe possesses. She will find happiness in that sensation of satisfaction.\nThen there is the real happiness\nwhich is more divine than all else in\nthe world, the happiness to be found\nin dning guud f'er others, relieving\nBuffering. No thanks are necessary.\nnot even a word.\nIf these women and men who live\nfor themselves alone, who have no\ntime to learn the sorrows of the less\nfortunate ones, who will not be annoyed with other people's troubles,\nwould get out into the world and be\nan uplift to some one of something,\nthey would not have these desperate\nbattles  with themselves  when alone\nwith    their   own    conscience.        They\nWOUld   not    ueellelel    as   tlll'V   do,   \"wlllll\nIn,   is  all  for.\"\nIt  is within the power eif each and\nevery soul 'en this earth t.. give bap*\npiness to some ol Cod's people.

BESTLAND, Auctioneer\nPhone Fairmont 1057\nWhen   selling   up   consult   us,   distance no object.\nWhen the Dominion department of\nagriculture twenty-three years ago\nestablished its experimental farm at\nAgassiz, the question of the hour\nwith the newly-arriving farmer in\nBritish Columbia was fruit. At any\nrate, for many years special attention\nwas paid to the horticultural end of\nlhe farm, fe.r this was its chief feature. There were several orchards\nand a great number eif experiments\niu growing various kinds of trees were\ncarried out by the superintendent, Mr.\nThomas  Sharpe.\nNearly a score of years, however,\nshowed that there were better places\nin British Columbia to grow fruit\nthan Agassiz. Some varieties of\ncourse, did very well in the orchards,\nbut the results appeared to justify a\nradical change in the policy of the\nfarm. Mr. Sharpe moved to Salmon\nArm to contiuc his fruiting experiments in a more favored locality. A\n.new superintendent, who was essen-\n' tially a livestock man, took charge.\nNow, the big farm is engaged particularly in the solving of livestock\nproblems, just as years ago its work\nwas particularly with the orchards.\nReally it is now a ceimmon or garden\nvariety of mixed farm, with a strong\nleaning to livestock\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand with only\nenough trees left to conduct the simplest experiments with.\nFarmers Appreciate It\nUnder the new regime the farm is\ndoing a big work among the dairy\nand poultry and hog-producing community of the lower mainland. Spread\nunder the shadow of Mount Clieam,\nwith seiil and weather conditions almost the same as the average Chilliwack or Langley farm, the experimental station is in a particularly fine\nand   effective   locality.     An   average\nTwo silus will contain upwards of\nMK) tons when the corn is all in. The\nstandard ground feed for cattle and\nhops on the farm is a mixture of\nabout four parts of oats to one of\npeas and one and a quarter of barley\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdall grown together on the same\nheld with a sowing of clover also\nput in at the same time for later feed.\nPractically one-fourth of the entire\nfarm was sowed to this grain crop\nthis year.\nHolsteins Do Well There\nMr. Moore is well satisfied with\nhis Holstein herd. He started nearly two years ago with 28 head, sent\nout from Ontario, and they arc doing\nexceedingly well. With a more difficult grazing country, Ayrshires or\nJerseys might perhaps be better, but\nwith plenty of rich grass available and\nlots of coarse feed the Holsteins are\nvery satisfactory. They are great\nmilk producer* and fine, large easily-\nhandled animals. Last year the milk\ntests showed an average of 3.76 in\nbutter fat. A prize milker is being\ntested just now. Shc gave 84 lbs. of\nmilk one day recently and yielded\n545 lbs. during the week, and this\none month after freshening. Most of\nlhe milk is turned into butter in the\nfarm dairy, but a little cream is sent\nto Vancouver.\nIn the pig section, where 100 or\nmore animals are kept, the most interesting experiments now going on\nis one to determine the value of the\nwaste meal from Vancouver's rice\nmills as a pork producer. Two score\nyoung pigs, taken after weaning, are\nnow being tested ou all kinds of food.\nFour iu a pen, they are being fed on\na dozen different combinations of\nfood. Some get rice meal, shorts and\nmilk;   some  get  rice  meal  and  milk\nsevere than usual\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdvre had to feed\nthem in the barn, the rest of the year\nthey cost nothing, for they got along\nquite well on grass not good enough\nfor cattle. The lamb product was\nworth from $5 to $15 each, so you\ncan see that the percentage of profit\nwas  high.\n\"Next year,\" Mr. Moore continued\n\"we expect to commence a series of\ntests as exact as possible on the besl\nrotation of crops. A field of ten\nacres will bc carefully surveyed and\ndivided into scores of plots where\nduring the next four or five years rotations will be tested. Then again\nwc arc carrying on experiments\nas to liming of soils, fertilizing and\nthe stages of decay at which best results can bc obtained from barnyard\nmanure. These questions we have\nnoi settled yet. But what wc have\nalready demonstrated io the efficiency\nof our own corn crop.

One\nfield eif ten acres harvested a few\nelays ago was as fine a forage crop\nas could be grown anywhere. It\nturned out approximately fifteen tons\nto the acre, which is far more than\ncould bc obtained off the same\nground from any other crop, and as\na feed for cattle can not be. surpassed.

The splendid collection of slides,\nmany colored and some quite unique,\nmade thc lecture memorable to all\nDickens' lovers.\nAs an editor, Dickens won the\nhearts of his colleagues, and Mr. Bursill told a story that is not generally\nknown as to the genuine kindness of\nBoz. When acting as editor of\n\"House Words,\" an American\nlady who was suffering in great loni-\nness in London, far from friends, with\na sick husband, and wilh narrow means\nwrote to him, asking advice as to proposed literary work.

I hold no brief for the \"Chi-\n.nook.\" 1 have no shares in it. I derive no income from it. It gives me\nthe hospitality of its columns to express myself, and I venture to say\nthat the Board of Trade will be unwise to injure South Vancouver by\ncurtailing the power of its own paper to represent the municipality. I\nhold no brief for the \"Chinook,\" I\nam candid enough to say that it can\nbe improved as \"a chronicle and epitome of the time\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdits form of substance\"\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdbut 1 am newspaper man\nenough to know that the paper reflects credit on South Vancouver and\nwherever it may go it will create a\ngood impression of the locality from\nwhich it emanates.

Mr. G. F. C. Caffin, M.A.,\nRector  of  St.  Peter's,  and  his  bride.\nRev. Mr. Caffin is widely known\nthroughout the municipality and his\nsterling qualities have won fur him\nmany friends, even beyond lhe boundaries of bis parish. Mrs. Caffin, who\nwas Miss Mary Tugwell, will be welcomed  to  the  district.\nHad it not been for the recent misfortune to the parish in the burning\nof St. Peter's Church, the wedding\nwould have likely been solemnized\nwithin its doors. The following report has been given of the event in\nthe daily press :\n\"The bishop of Xew Westminster\nwas thc celebrant, on the festival of\nSt. Simon and St. Jutle, of the marriage between Rev. George Fordyce\nCrawford Caffin, M.A., and Miss Mary\nTugwell, youngest daughter of the\nlate Rev. Canon R. Tugwell, of Oxford, Eng., and Mrs. Tugwell, of\nVancouver. A large company of j\nfriends gathered at St. James' church\nfor the service, the organist of St.\nPeter's accompanying the hymns and\nplaying the wedding marches. Rev.\nWilliam Barton, priest-vicar of\nChrist church, Victoria, acted as bishop's chaplain, and also read the preface, while the nuptial eucharist was\ncelebrated by Rev. Father Hume-\nSmith, assisted by Rev. Father Ed-\nwardes, rector of St. James'. Mrs.\nTugwell gave away her daughter,\nwho looked charming in a simply\nfashioned white frock and lovely veil\nused by her mother at her own wedding, and the Douquet she carried was\ncomposed of white roses and lily of\nthe valley. Miss Tugwell was bridesmaid to her sister, while Rev. Fane-\nEdge accompanied the groom. Following the ceremony, the company\nof guests were entertained at St.\nLuke's at a delightful dejeuner prepared in her own inimitable way by\nSister Francis, the bishop of New\nWestminster paying a tribute to the\nbridge and groom in a felicitous\nspeech, and proposing thc health of\nMrs. Tugwell. The beautiful flowers\nused in the decoration of thc church\nand St. Luke's were the gift of a member of the congregation, while con-\nspicious among the numerous and\nvaluable wedding presents received\nwas a particularly handsome dining-\nroom clock, presented bv the choir\nof St. Peter's and a few friends. Mrs\nOliver Harvey kindly lent her moleer-\ncar for the' occasion and the bride\nand groom drove away amidst a\nshower of confetti accompanied by\nthe good wishes of their friends.\nAn interesting lecture was given\nby A.
